VERA News & Events

"In 2025, Vera Therapeutics delivered on several key milestones as we advanced atacicept toward potential FDA approval and commercialization," said Marshall Fordyce, M.D., Founder and CEO of Vera Therapeutics. "The BLA has been granted priority review and we expect to be commercially prepared to successfully launch atacicept in IgAN in mid-2026 if approved. Our commercial team brings decades of experience launching innovative therapies and is eager to bring this potentially disease-modifying therapy to patients with IgAN and other autoimmune kidney diseases."

Vera Therapeutics reported $714.6 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of December 31, 2025, which combined with availability under its debt facility, Vera Therapeutics believes to be sufficient to fund operations through potential approval and U.S. commercial launch of atacicept and beyond.

Vera Therapeutics announced the appointment of Matt Skelton to Chief Commercial Officer, effective immediately. Skelton joined Vera Therapeutics over a year ago as the Executive Vice President, Commercial. Before joining Vera Therapeutics, Skelton scaled the commercial organization at Seagen.
